PGYTECH CreateMate CFexpress Type A/SD Reviews

Brilliant 2-in-1 Design – Fast and Rugged!

By Bartosz

Having a secure, rugged place to store my cards that also doubles as a high-speed reader is a total game-changer for my workflow. The build quality is fantastic, it feels incredibly durable, and the moss green color is a nice touch. It perfectly eliminates the need to carry a separate card reader in my camera bag. The transfer speeds are extremely fast when offloading footage, and the plug-and-play USB-C cable is super convenient. Highly recommend this to anyone looking to streamline their gear.

Built like a tank - but weighs as much as one too

This is a very solidly built item. But it is shockingly heavy for an item that one is presumably going to cart around. This was an instant dealbreaker for me when I took it out of the box. If you don't mind the weight - it looks like a very thoughtfully and well built item. Feels more like a steel safe than an aluminum box. My other complaint though is that it has a built-in cord attached that you have to use to plug it in. There is a female USB-C port but it apparently it only works as a power passthrough. I did not catch the USB issues when looking at the item online.
